PoliceOne.com iPhone App Reaches 25,000 Downloads on iTunes

SAN FRANCISCO – PoliceOne.com, the leading online resource for the law enforcement community, today announced that its new iPhone app has received over 25,000 downloads on iTunes, ranking it as one of the most downloaded apps for the law enforcement market.

Since the July 2010 launch, iPhone users have been able to access a wide range of PoliceOne.com content through the PoliceOne app. The app was created in response to the evolving habits of police officers, who are increasingly reliant on their mobile devices for accessing news and other resources while serving in the field. Whether officers need to research a specific law enforcement topic from their squad car or just want to browse the latest news from the break room, the PoliceOne app provides an ease of access to mobile police content that has never been available to them before.

“We are very pleased with the immediate and significant response we have had from officers to the PoliceOne iPhone app, which surpassed even our most optimistic estimates,” said Robert Dippell, Online Director for PoliceOne. “The app’s success is a telltale sign that officers are increasingly taking advantage of new and emerging technologies.”

PoliceOne.com will be launching similar applications for other mobile devices – including BlackBerry and Android – in the coming months. In addition, the site has also set up a page to inform officers about other iPhone applications that are currently available and relevant to Law Enforcement.
